 	<h2>Contribute</h2>
 	<p>Thanks for your interest to support 4diac. There are multiple ways to contribute.</p>
 	<h3>Documentation, Marketing, and Supporting new Users</h3>
 		<ul>
 			<li>Improve and extend the existing documentation</li>
 			<li>Write new tutorials</li>
 			<li>Support the forums: Answer questions in the different forums</li>
 			<li>Spread the word: link to 4diac, use 4diac logo on your web page, write articles, blog entries, etc.</li>
 		</ul>
 	<h3>Bug Wrangling and Testing</h3>
 		<ul>
 			<li>Find and report bugs to ensure the quality of 4diac.</li>
 			<li>Submit ideas for improvement via <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=4DIAC">4diac's Bugzilla</a>.</li>
 			<li>Review and verify <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?list_id=13385396&product=4DIAC&query_format=advanced">reported bugs</a>. Sometimes there is not enough info attached to a bug report or it is hard to reproduce. Trying to reproduce a bug and extending the description is of great value.</li>
 			<li>Rate Bugs, feature requests, and ideas. This helps that we can focus our limited resources on the most important elements first.</li>
 		</ul>
 	<h3>Development</h3>
   <p>If you are a developer feel free to grab the code and start hacking. You can submit your patch any time when you are ready.</p>
 		<ul>
 			<li>Extend and improve FB library. Having a large set of FBs increases the usability of 4diac for developing control solutions.</li>
 			<li>For ideas where to start your effort have a look at the bugs and features submitted to the <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?list_id=13385396&product=4DIAC&query_format=advanced">4diac's issue tracker</a>.</li>
